Historical Jesus Gospels

Why, if Jesus is a historical character?

are there are presently two dates for both Christmas and Easter since they both involve “birth”?

This purportedly well-known character, Jesus, who supposedly set the world on fire, has no birth date whatsoever, and the “historical” references and genealogies found in the gospel accounts differ from each other which is hardly likely if they are to be believed as “true”. What you find upon such study of the New Testament when compared with the Hebrew Scriptures let alone the conflicts and contradictions among the New Testament manuscripts themselves is that the gospels are not history at all but a retelling of the Mythos that finds its origin in Sun Worship. The historical Jesus is an apparition. In addition, early Christian “doctors” were constantly contradicting themselves as to when exactly “the Lord” died or “ascended to heaven” after “he” was resurrected. Two of the most powerful early bishops, Irenaeus and Papias record that Christ lived to be very old,

An historical character he most definitely is not!!

There is not one single mention of Jesus in the entire Roman record – that is right – not one!!! At the same time as he was supposed to have been around there were a number of Jews claiming to be the messiah – all of whom are well recorded!!

He was supposed to have been a huge problem to the Romans and produced wonderful miracles but still not one contemporary record?

Even the bible mentions of him like all other references were not written until many years after his supposed death!!

At best he was an amalgam of those others!!

Pilot is recorded in the Roman record as a somewhat lack luster man but no mention of a Jesus, a trial or crucifixion that would surely have been used to make him look brighter!!

Theologians studying the bible say the birth would have been in June!!

The church under Pope Julius I declared that Christ’s birth would be celebrated on December 25 in 350 AD in order to try to hijack the PAGAN festivals but it was largely ignored. Christians did not really celebrate Christmas until 378 but it was then dropped in 381 and not resurrected until 400.

That was why America actually banned Christmas several times and is the originator of the expression “Happy Holidays” which came about because of the pagan origins of Christmas to include all religions and traditions!!

Easter is set by the first full moon after the vernal equinox. This is the one day in the year when day and night are roughly equal!

It varies by more than a month over the years and so it simply cannot represent the date of anyone’s death!!!

It is in fact a combination of several pagan festivals most notably the spring festival.

The name Easter comes from “Eastre” an Anglo-Saxon pagan goddess. Also the Norse goddess,Ostara who took her name from the Teutonic lunar goddess Eostre

The Venerable Bede, an early Christian writer pointed out that the Christian church absorbed Pagan practices when it found the population unwilling to give up the festivals. Thus a lot of what Christians now see as Christians practices are in fact pagan!!!

Fun to watch the Christians worshiping pagan festivals though and how hard they are to try and p`rove their pagan credentials!!!
